I am watching your evening news. To discuss the "poll" without explaining over polling African American and catholic voters is disengenuous. The poll is not a "real" poll and only YOUR viewers are being LIED to.
Based upon what I am seeing, ABC is just as much in the tank for Obama as CNN, NBC, and CBS, only to throw him under the bus to McCain in the fall.
Thanks so much, Dean!

Is there any live feed over the web?

After PA there will be about 400 elected delegates up for grabs. And Hillary will be still be down by around 140-150 elected delegates at least. Assuming Oregon and North Carolina delegate awards are split 50-50, Hillary has to win just about ALL the remaining elected delegates to catch up to Obama.

Yep ... and there is that pesky issue of disenfranchising Michigan and Florida. Since he obviously doesn't believe he can win in a revote in either state against her, I am following his lead, and I'm not going to vote for him either! Oh wait, I already did that in Ohio ;)

TCG,
I agree with you. We have to see major mud on Obama's face for the race to tighten any further. Bittergate is not doing it, unless we see at least 15 points out of PA (the very high side of my projection), and the flow-through is higher in other rural states.
I'm curious on what the affect of the news about his $4.2 million jackpot last year will be, but I don't think it will cause much of a bump.
Hillary hasn't played BitterGate well enough in my opinion. She should have handed off to surrogates sooner. At this point it all comes down to the ads. She has to sacrifice further likeability (and we know she's low in that realm) to do more damage to Obama. My sense is that it will work to create the differential in PA, but will it be big enough for WCM's projection to come true, remains to be seen.
========================================
Barack Obama, losing the election one bitter voter at a time!

I was just interrupted by a sales call from the Boston Globe. I'd recently cancelled my subscription due to their huge Obama bias. It got so that even though my family have been subscribers for over 50 years, their coverage was raising my blood pressure too high. So, one day I said to myself "I'm paying for this junk?" and cancelled my subscription.
Anyway, the young, sweet guy who was trying to get me to come back onboard with a 50 % rate reduction (no thanks), said "is it because they're so 'left' in their coverage? - 'cause I've been getting that a lot while making these calls."
Since Massachusetts has already called it for Clinton, it felt good to vote this time with my pocketbook.
Coincidentally, Newsweek sent me a renewal notice today. You should read what I told them they could do with their magazine and Jonathan Alter.

s. valenti: You're right on brother!
I'm with you 100%

ere are just a few.
1. I believe that Obama is incompetent and not qualified to be President.
2. In protest to the tactics of Obama supporters viciously attacking anyone who posts anything that causes Obama's divinity into question.
3. In honor of the people who suffered and died in "Obama's Slums"
There are many more reasons.
Those are just the first few that come to mind.

Posted by: nemo | Apr 16, 2008 7:45:28 PM

More is coming out in the Rezko trial this week. Again Obam cannot remember. He did not remember hearing Rev Wright. Obama is a cheating lawyer.
Where is the 8 year BO's Illinois senate records? You cannot get the truth from this man. He does the riffle shuffle. He is dealing from the bottom of the deck and keeps explaining with lies. Who can see this? It is so Easy to see if you have observed other elections.
The Republican media allows him to fool people because they want the Republicans to win.
Time to call Obama's bluff. Reveal your Senate records!
Read Chicago Sun, the Rezko trial places him in the company of Auchi the billionaire corrupt fraudster so Obama could get money from him to buy his home.
He should get out of the race because he is dividing our Democratic Party.

how come these candidates never discuss what type of bailout they are going to do for renters. All we hear about is bailout for banks and mortgage holders. Well because of this renters costs have skyrocketed

I realize the majority bias has been from the media, but I got a call a couple nights ago from the Iowa Democratic party asking for a $100 donation. I told them no way. After a lenghty canned reply, they asked for $50. Absolutely not. In my opinion the democratic leaders are just as much at fault for the bias that has been for Obama and against Hillary. They could have done more to put it on a fair level playing ground. I will not give them another red cent and I am officially chaning to an indpendent. Their ineptness has really opened my eyes and John McCain is honestly looking better and better. He is definitely more towards the center than Obama, the most liberal Senator. The dems can paint him Bush 3 all they want, but I do see differences.

How come the candidates never talk about amnesty. You know amnesty for the people who hired illegals. Everyone goes after the illegal aliens but meanwhile they never go after the people who hired them. In new york for example 1.3 million people have hired illegal nanniers and nobody goes after them

Here's hoping ABC plays fair!!

What about all the voters who did not come out to vote in Florida and Michigan because the two canidates, as well as the DNC, told them their votes wouldn't count?
Aren't THEY going to be disenfranchised?
Posted by: Rick | Apr 16, 2008 8:08:28 PM
If Hillary wins, will she sell the Oval Office like her Husband has?
Posted by: tombo | Apr 16, 2008 8:08:42 PM
Yes, Sam, let's see where hoping gets us.
Posted by: JL | Apr 16, 2008 8:09:14 PM

Posted by: kk | Apr 16, 2008 8:09:22 PM
